Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to somatotropins and particularly to stable and bioactive somatotropins and methods for producing stable and bioactive somatotropins.
  • somatotropin sometimes referred to as growth hormone in the art, is produced by the pituitary throughout an animal's life. Somatotropin is known to promote skeletal growth, nitrogen retention, protein synthesis and to affect glucose and lipid metabolism. Accordingly, somatotropin is recognized as a general anabolic agent.
  • Somatotropin can be isolated from excised pituitary tissue. See, e.g., Li, J. Biol. Chem. 211, 55 (1954). Somatotropin can also be obtained from genetically engineered microorganisms containing recombinant DNA which specifies the production of somatotropin. See, e.g., Seeburg, et al., Nature, 276, 795-798 (1978); Seeburg et al., Nature, 270, 486-494 (1978); Martial, Science, 205, 602-607 (1979); and Seeburg, et al., DNA. 2, 37-45 (1983). Somatotropins from particular species have been studied and characterized.
  • bovine somatotropin is known to be a polypeptide synthesized in and secreted from the anterior lobe of the pituitary.
  • a nucleotide coding sequence and an amino acid sequence of native bovine somatotropin have been reported; e.g. Miller et al., J. Biol. Chem. , 255, 7521-24 (1980); and Wallis, FEBS Lett, 35, 11-14
  • Bovine somatotropin is a protein of 191 amino acids and appears to be synthesized initially as a bovine pre-somatotropin of 217 amino acids; the signal sequence of 26 amino acids being removed from the N-terminal position during synthesis and secretion, e.g. Lingapa et al. , Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 74, 2432-36 (1977).
  • bovine somatotropin is extracted from pituitary glands of cattle or produced via recombinant DNA technology in appropriate hosts, e.g.. Miller et al., J. Biol. Chem. , 255, 7521-24 (1980).
  • U.S. Patent No. 4,443,539 to Frazier et al discloses a process for preparing bovine somatotropin by utilizing recombinant DNA methodology to place the bovine somatotropin structural gene into yeast cells.

  • methods for producing somatotropins are well known, methods for storing somatotropin during the often long period between somatotropin production and use are not well developed.
  • Somatotropins tend to form bioinactive dimers, oligomers, and insoluble aggregates during storage. These bioinactive forms of the somatotropin lower the amount of somatotropin available for use and cause problems during administration, particularly when insoluble aggregates form precipitates in somatotropin solutions.
  • Methods are, therefore, needed for producing a stable and bioactive somatotropin which will not form bioinactive dimers, oligomers, and aggregates during storage. Summary of the Invention It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a stable and bioactive somatotropin which will not form bioinactive dimers, oligomers, and ' aggregates during storage.

  • Cystine-PTH elutes at 14.8 minutes. The exact amount was not calculated due to non-availability of Cystine-PTH standard. Since two PTH-residues were released during 2nd & 3rd Edman cycles, it is also established that after 2 hours of hydrolysis with trypsin the carboxy-terminal Arg-Arg amino acids did not cleave. Trypsin cannot hydrolyze these bonds. It also appears that Cystine-Arg bond is resistant to trypsin hydrolysis.

Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à une somatotropine stable et bioactive dont les groupes sulfhydryles à petite boucle sont dérivés et à un procédé de production de somatotropine dérivée à petite boucle. La somatotropine dérivée à petite boucle est stable lors de stockages longue durée, c'est-à-dire qu'elle forme très peu de dimères, d'oligomères et d'aggrégats qui généralement inactivent la somatotropine, et elle se caractérise par une bioactivité égale ou supérieure à celle de la somatotropine non dérivée.
